Abstract Illustrative projections of mortality from injuries, all accidents and motor vehicle crashes were developed based on current mortality rates. If exposure to existing injury sources is unchanged and unless more effective injury prevention countermeasures are employed. 8 million injury deaths may be expected to occur among the resident population of the United States alive in 1980. These deaths include nearly 2 million motor vehicle fatalities and more than 5.6 million deaths from all accidents.
